Local Immigrant Population*

3000

*Immigrant Population is an estimated sum of the number of naturalized Americans from this country and citizens from this country living in the Seattle Metro Area under any sort of immigration visa.  It does not count the American offspring or descendants of immigrants from this country, which can go back many generations and account for large numbers of people.  1,000 is the default number when we don’t have a better count.

Languages:

Latvian or Lettish. English is the preferred second language of young generations and is a requirement to work in Latvian tourism.

Notes:

For a country with fewer than 2 million people, Latvia has an outsized history and a surprising presence in the Pacific NW.  Latvians in Seattle enjoy a welcoming atmosphere with several Latvian community organizations.  Cabbage soup, beans, and grey peas have not exactly jumped to the top of the culinary popularity charts, but a Latvian or dedicated Baltic fan can surely find the ingredients and specialty shops to recreate the tastes of home in Seattle.  Seattleites can also revel in Latvian handiwork at local festivals, including an annual Latvian Christmas Market.

 

Latvia has one Honorary Consul in the United States, located in Philadelphia at https://www.latvia-philadelphia.org/consular-information

Why does Seattle need this directory?

1

Covid has ruined the travel plans of so many people.  Maybe you are one of them.  Family trips, honeymoons, first time overseas trips postponed and cancelled.  Please explore this directory to create your own Round-the-World experience without traveling far from Seattle.  

2

Believe it or not, in 2022, New York City passed a law granting non-US citizens the right to vote in certain local and municipal elections.  Will Seattle follow NYC?  Time will tell.  If that comes to be, then this directory should be indispensable.  Let us know what you think.
